introducing the hired help...

i mentioned in my last post i had somebody new around here to help with creative input, research and post editing...

i didn't advertise the position...hr or legal or somebody will likely be on to me as i hired from within...nepotism if you will...

anyway, here's the new addition to the team...darby...!!!

darby is 8 weeks old, we've had her for 2 weeks now...she is a standard poodle, her colour is deemed 'apricot' amongst the poodle set...

i have a handlin' on it...

it's been a busy wee while for me folks...

and between one thing another i've got caught up in a whirlwind of activities, a plethora of events and what-nots leading me to renegotiate my time management skills...

fear not...

i'll be back in full force on monday...with a new addition to the team here at custardbydesign to help me keep on top of things...

cosy up...

cosy up indeed...

who wouldn't with these lushes...

perfect as singles or in pairs keeping an eye on each other they measure 28 x 38 cm and come with a duck feather pad...and for the next 48 hours they are available here at £30 instead of the usual £37.)

the perfect pin up addition to your sofa or bed...

another woman in my bed...ssshhhh...don't tell mc wife...

just another idea...

how great is this design...thanks julie...

i crave carte blanche...

icrave's latest project, carte blanche at the hotel gansevoort, new york, is situated on the most vibrant corner of the meatpacking district...

icrave grabbed this corner and turned it inside out, making a distinct volume in the hotel - capturing the street life and breaking away from the style of the existing lobby...

"the designers at ICRAVE breathed life into the heart of the hotel – creating a space that meets the needs of a 24 hour hotel lobby. The design is layered for various traveler types that will occupy the space. From the business traveler to the romantic traveler to the fashionable crowd of the neighborhood, the space works equally well for a mid-morning cappuccino, an afternoon meeting, a light lunch or a guest checking into their room..."
